ONLINE: Make a Zine – New! Adults (18+)

Learn to make a fun little book full of drawings, stories, and puzzles for friends and loved ones. In this two-day class, we'll each dream up a theme for our zine, then explore that theme through text and images. We'll learn how to assemble our pages to make either a one-of-a-kind object or something that can be printed in batches and shared widely. For anyone looking to get out of a creative slump with an instant gratification project, this is the class for you!
